Apocalypse Gachapon

Chapter 2004: Something different

Ye Zhongming felt a pang of pain just watching from the side.

He even saw how that palm strike twisted this previously arrogant Clan Leader Qiemenʼs body.

But before he hit the ground, the giant palm shadow swung out again. With another pa sound, Qiemen was sent flying in another direction.

Just like that, the giant palm shadow continuously swung out, slapping the leader of the Phantom Killer Clan around like a ball. Later on, he was completely unrecognizable as human, just a piece of human-shaped rotten meat.

Ye Zhongming couldnʼt help shaking his head. What a cool entrance he had made earlier, what confident declarations. But now? First punched flying, then slapped to death with palms.

He didnʼt know if the Phantom Killer Clan still had any descendants or not. If not, then they were truly exterminated.

After killing the person, the Librarian walked to Ye Zhongmingʼs side, slightly raised his head, revealing half of his face.

”I apologize.”

Ye Zhongmingʼs body trembled at the sound of this.

Although he had never seen Cheng Liujin or the two Star-Eye Lords make a move, he could definitely say that the three people from the Star-Eye Clan combined would not be a match for the person in front of him. This person killed a top assassin effortlessly. He estimated that even among the major clans, this person would absolutely be a notable figure.
Such a person apologizing to someone whose Furelai was only a few thousand now... even though Ye Zhongming was accustomed to being the Cloud Peak King, he couldnʼt handle this.

”As long as you can help us solve the problem, not just thanks, I will do anything you ask.” This person also understood Ye Zhongmingʼs feelings, so he continued: ”Until you leave, I will follow you. Rest assured.”

”This place...”

Ye Zhongming pointed at the battlefield.

”Before we came, we had already completely shielded the surrounding area. The old deanʼs intention is to act as if it never happened, resolve it privately ourselves.”

Ye Zhongming was stunned for a moment, but immediately understood.

If the matter was announced, it would naturally cause an uproar. The cosmic races would jointly investigate this incident. Perhaps Ye Zhongming and the others would get an explanation, and future assassination attempts against him would make people think twice. However, the Librarians were also very likely to be exposed.

To be honest, the old dean had spent twenty years hiding eight hundred and fifty Librarians. When no one was paying attention, this was naturally a slow plan, like enduring hardships. But once someone became suspicious, finding over eight hundred people in a city wasnʼt actually too difficult. As long as one of the over eight hundred people was discovered, the entire group would be exposed.

Regarding this matter, the best approach was indeed as the old dean decided: directly suppress it.

As long as Ye Zhongming and the others didnʼt publicize it, the planners of this assassination naturally wouldnʼt publicize it either. Then no one would pay attention. Without attention, the secret of the Librarians wouldnʼt be discovered. This was the most beneficial approach for both the Library Palace and him, Ye Zhongming.

As for possible future assassination attempts, Ye Zhongming was still somewhat confident in handling them. This time, he had truly been somewhat careless.

”I know it will be somewhat difficult for you to return, after all, people died. But we have captured live prisoners from the assassin side. The information obtained will be sent to you as soon as possible. As for explaining things to the Star-Eye Clan, youʼll have to trouble yourself with that. Also, communication with the Su Clan side will also need you to handle.”

Ye Zhongming nodded. This wasnʼt too difficult to handle. Whether it was the Star-Eye Clan or Jie Su, it would only take a word from him.

”But this place...”

Ye Zhongming pointed to the surrounding buildings. Although there werenʼt many windows on the alley side, and they were all high up, there were still a few. The ground was also badly damaged, plus the corpses and the previous restaurant; all these needed to be dealt with.

”We will handle it very well.” After the Librarian said this, without any visible movement, his body continuously moved backward and soon disappeared. Simultaneously, footsteps came from the end of the alley; Jie Su and the golden-masked warrior rushed over.

Seeing the bloodied corpse lying on the ground, both Jie Su and the golden-masked warrior were stunned.

Jie Su had only guessed that since the one dealing with him was a top assassin, the one dealing with Ye Zhongming certainly wouldnʼt be weak; after all, he had guards. Now that the guards had rushed to save him, then if Ye Zhongming hadnʼt been defeated and killed here, he would probably have been in an absolutely disadvantageous position. But the reality seemed different from what he imagined.

The golden-masked warrior was even more surprised.

He knew that when he left, he felt a powerful energy fluctuation, stronger than the assassin he had actively fought before. Judging by the situation, it should belong to the one lying on the ground, uh, this pile of rotten meat. Conservatively estimating, when this guy was alive, his Furelai was at least over thirty-five thousand, possibly reaching forty thousand or even higher. So how was he killed by a Bronze Order Leader whose Furelai wasnʼt even ten thousand?

A series of questions arose in both their minds.

However, no matter what, it was good that Ye Zhongming was fine.

”Did you notify your people?” Seeing the two arrive, Ye Zhongming instead asked first.

”Notified.” Jie Su replied.

”Suppress this matter later.” Ye Zhongming knew now wasnʼt the time for details, so he pulled the two away.

”This place...” Jie Su still wanted to say something, but was forcibly pulled away. He knew his friend had a plan in mind, so he didnʼt ask further and followed Ye Zhongming away.

Soon, they boarded the Su Clanʼs aircraft. The people Jie Su had summoned for rescue also returned together.

”Can you tell me now?”

After the aircraft started, Jie Su found a moment to approach Ye Zhongming and inquire about the situation at the time.

Ye Zhongming thought for a moment and said, ”That assassin indeed wasnʼt killed by me. Someone did it for me. But Iʼm really sorry, I cannot reveal who that person is without their permission. But rest assured, it wonʼt affect any of our matters.”

Jie Su looked intently at Ye Zhongming for a while, nodded, and didnʼt mention this matter again. But he then said, ”Have you really decided not to go back with me directly? But to return to the Star-Eye Clan first?”

The matters to discuss with the Su Clan would inevitably involve the Star-Eye Clan in many aspects. No matter how much importance his clan placed on him internally, after all, Ye Zhongming was only a Bronze Order Leader. Often, he still needed to be careful.

”Persuading you is easy, after all, we share common ideals, can understand each other, and wonʼt quibble over gains and losses. But talking with your clansmen is different. Donʼt even mention me; even if the two Star-Eye Lords went personally to talk, itʼs possible they might be made to wait outside for a month. So, you need to go back first and communicate with them, then prepare some things.”

Ye Zhongmingʼs speech was somewhat slow, clearly thinking about something.

”Donʼt place too much hope in me; my say in the clan isnʼt high.” Jie Su told the truth.

”You donʼt need a high say. You just need to tell them. When I go, I will show them some... different things.”
